We begin Of course by praising Allah we praise Him we seek His help and also his forgiveness. And we take refuge in the love from the evil of ourselves and from the evil consequence of our evil actions anyone who Allah guides, no one can misguide. But anybody who Allah leaves to go astray, known can guide and I testify that Allah alone is worthy of worship and the Mohammed sallallahu alayhi wa sallam is his servant and His Messenger
Alhamdulillah it's a bit cooler in here.
But maybe if the air conditioning was still broken, it would help us to remind us what my next talk is about.
Yeah.
The I feel nervous actually even thinking about what I'm going to be talking about.
Because it is really frightening and really scary.
Where can we start?
I tell you where we will start.
I will start with something the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said,
he talked about
an event that will happen on the Day of Judgment. This event that will happen on the Day of Judgment is that Allah subhanho wa Taala
will take a man who had suffered the most in this life.
He had suffered the most in this life. So from all the human beings and you can imagine, please imagine the suffering of human beings. This man suffered the most of every human being. And Allah will take him and Allah will dip him in paradise. And Allah will ask him, do you remember suffering
in the life of the world, and he will say Allah, I don't remember any suffering in the life of the world.
And Allah will take command. This man enjoyed
the most pleasures of the pleasures of this world. And I want you to think about the pleasures of this world. Not only the pleasures, in terms of riches were the pleasures in terms of mental pleasures,
being happy.
Being carefree,
feeling secure.
All over take this man who enjoy the most pleasures of this dunya and Allah will dip him in Hellfire, dip him in Hellfire, and Allah will ask him
Do you remember enjoying the life of the world?
He said Allah I don't remember the life of the world. I don't remember any enjoyments.
So my brothers and sisters, if this is the situation of a man who is dipped in Hellfire, how about a person for whom this will be their eternal abode and their everlasting dwelling?
What is the reality of this place?
What is the reality of this fire?
The intensity of the heat of this fire
is 1000s of times
1000s of times the intensity of the heat of the hottest fire in this earth.
The Hellfire is so hot.
so furious,
the one part of the Hellfire consumes the other part of the hellfire.
The Hellfire is eating itself.
Because of this, Allah subhanaw taala allows the Hellfire to breathe to stop it consuming itself. And in the Quran.
Allah describes the hellfire.
He describes it as if it is a living creature.
And this creature,
this creature, this living creature, as if it is a living creature,
a mother but a mother in the most terrible, horrible way that you can imagine the opposite of what we imagined motherhood is a mother of destruction, a mother of pain, a mother of suffering.
This Hellfire boasted with paradise
argued with paradise.
Boasting that I am the hellfire.
I am the Hellfire in me are the rich and the powerful and that arrogant and the proud. This is the ghost of the hellfire. It is the kindled roof, the kindled roof, the kindle the anger of Allah subhanho wa Taala. And the Hellfire is proud of its
state status that Allah has given it
as being the means through which he subhanaw taala will punish those who are rebellious and disobedience.
And Allah subhanho wa Taala has promised this Hellfire, that it will be full
on the Day of Judgment,
on the day of judgment,
when we are assembled,
we human beings, all of us, the first of us to the last of us,
human beings are assembled in front of Allah subhanho wa Taala and Adam alayhis salaam, is asking Allah subhanaw taala How many? How many? meaning how many are destined for the * of fire? You will be told told him 999 out of every 1999 out of every 1000 human beings
we'll be going to Hellfire
and they will be changed on the Day of Judgment.
The people who made should quit Allah, the people who disbelieve in Allah,
they will not even be questioned. There's no Day of Judgment for them in the sense that
they will be questioned and asked No, because if they had died upon this belief, and this is not including those people who are ignorant, there may be some people who never knew about Islam. This is different. We're talking about people who chose and knowingly chose to disbelieve in Allah and to make sure that with Allah in fact, they knowingly chose to go to *, no one goes to *.
By mistake
it's not a default location.
You don't end up in Hellfire and think oh, how did I get here? People in Hellfire know that this is where they deserve to be. And their punishment is from the complete and perfect justice of Allah subhanho wa Taala.
And you may think and ask
how could anyone deserve to be in Hellfire forever? How could anyone deserve this terrible suffering and this terrible torment of Hellfire forever Holly Dena fee has the Quran says they will dwell there in forever.
And it will be forever because on the Day of Judgment, when the people who are to be destined to be in Hellfire to be in Paradise, they're in paradise. And when all the people who are destined to be in the Hellfire there they are in the hellfire. Allah subhanho wa Taala he subhanho wa Taala
he will bring around
and He will say to the people of Paradise, do you know what this is? And they will say yes, Allah it is death.
And Allah subhanho wa Taala will have the people of Hellfire asked Do you know what is this? They say yes, a light is death. And Allah will have this ram snorted.
And Allah subhanaw taala it will be said there is no more death. And because of this, the people of Paradise will be more happy. And because of this, the people of Hellfire will be in more despair.
who deserves to be in Hellfire forever. I will tell you who deserves to be in Hellfire forever other people who chose to be in Hellfire forever because the reality is brothers and sisters.
If Allah send them back to this life, they would have chosen disbelief again. And if they had lived forever on earth
They would have disbelieved forever on Earth. So that choice is an eternal choice and their punishment is an eternal punishment. This is the reality, they get what they deserve.
This, my brothers and sisters is the reality. Don't be deceived by the life of this world. What is the life of this world compared to the acara? What is it like? Imagine you must do this one day, you must do this one day, please take a needle, I want you to take a needle borrowed from your wife will go with your wife together one day, we just gonna do this one day, take a needle and go to the sea.
Go to the sea.
Take a needle and go and go to a place where you can see as much of it as possible as much of the ocean as possible. Dip the needle in the ocean. And you see the water left on the needle. This is higher to dunya This is the life of this world what's left and the ocean is the era
that is this life.
That is the life of the wolves.
So the Acura the Hellfire,
a knob jahannam
and how it has many names. The Hellfire has many names, and it has many levels of punishment. It has levels of severity of punishment, the least punishment, the least punishment of anyone in Hellfire, this is the smallest punishment
is a man who will wear two sandals of fire.
He will have two sandals of fire
and the sandals of fire will cause his brain to boil.
This man has the least punishment and Hellfire and he will think that he has the worst. He will think that he has the worst.
This is the least punishment.
most severe punishment, and the deepest part of the hellfire. Actually everyone in Hellfire will at times go to the deepest part of the hellfire.
And here is the most severe punishment.
And what is the punishment of Hellfire?
Imagine this brothers and sisters. Imagine a place where your skin is burns.
Your skin is burns.
Actually, if you're a medical doctor or maybe if you've been burnt,
you would know well if that was it, that would be the end of it because once my skin is burnt, my nerve endings are burnt and I will not feel pain anymore.
Allah knows that.
That is why in the Quran he said that he will recreate their skins
and burn their skins and as often as their skins are burnt, Allah will recreate them so they can taste the punishment
so they can taste the punishment.
I want you to think about the thirstiest time, the time you have been the most distant, maybe a particularly hot day in Ramadan.
I remember a day
Subhan Allah
I went for a lesson, a lesson to ride bikes with my son.
This was in Ramadan. It was so our Ramadan at the moment is very long in England. It's like 17 hours it's going to be 18 hours then it's going to be 19 hours. The last five hours of this I spent I was so thirsty. My my mouth was you know I felt like I was a dried prune a parchment. Soul thirsty. Imagine the most time you have been the most thirsty. Imagine that then imagine this thirst amplified even how thirsty will the people in Hellfire be? How thirsty will they be? from the heat of the Hellfire from the fire and the smoke and the heat
they will be so thirsty and they will be crying.
pleading for
Drink
and they will get a drink. But this drink that they get will be like molten lead, like lead that has been melted.
It will scold their faces and burn out their insides.
This is the drink of the people of Hellfire, one of the drinks. Another drink of the people of Hellfire is plus, you know from the wound when you get a wound, the past that comes from the wound, the people of Hellfire because of their wounds, their wounds will ooze pass the whole time, and this will collect and make rivers of pus.
This will be what the people will have to drink in the hellfire. They will drink from these rivers of paths.
And there are specific punishments in the Hellfire specific punishments for specific types of crimes that people have done.
You Mercy's word IBC keep in mind to remember the new dean and allow me to two Salam Alaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh smilla rahmanir rahim I praise Allah Almighty alone and I send the best Peace and blessings upon his most beloved Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him, brothers and sisters will come to a live edition of your program. As
I cannot pinpoint or determine the fate of any individual by name and say this person is in heaven or this person is in *. This is not up to me. But we have the general guidelines
and the ruling with regards to those who die in a state of Islam and those who live in a state of
any religion other than fathima as the ladies have to call that your karma before every compulsory prayer no they don't have to consider the other know that.
There are two different opinions brother Abdul Latif, due to the understanding of the area which says, When Allah subhanaw taala order the Prophet sallallahu Sallam to do the following. He said yeah, you have a view holy cow of Antarctica when he said in Mina Yoda Nina la Nemanja lady behind that
and the names of Allah that I will work should be tau p fi, the term tau p fi means, we do not suggest a lot any, we do not ascribe to him a name based on our assumptions.
One of the punishments
for those who consume river
they will swim across the river of pus. When they get to the bank and they try to crawl out and Angel will come with a stone and smash this stone in their face, they will fall and it will smash their teeth they will fall into the river and swim to the other side and an angel be waiting and smash the stone and this will go on and on.
The people who are used to backbiting and tail color carrying carrying tails, spreading lies, like the writers of newspapers, gossip columns,
brothers and sisters. Think about before you pick up this phone and you start typing things about other people on it. And the message that and the thing that you say and you tweet is spread across the world.
Think about the Day of Judgment.
Think about the punishment for the back biters. Think about the punishment for the tail carriers. You know their punishment is these people an angel will come with a metal hook will put the hook in their mouth and rip their cheek.
rip their cheek and as this begins to heal, it will heal then it will put it on the other side and rip their cheek and this will begin to heal and this is what they will do. This is the punishment for the back biters and the tail carriers.
The adulterous and the fornicators
their punishment is they will be put in an oven you know, like the tandoor the oven
they will be put in an oven
and the heat of the oven will be intense so they will go from the bottom of the oven to the top
where it will be slightly will still be hot but slightly cooler and when it's a bit they will go down again like this in this oven punished in this oven. These are the specific punishments in Hellfire brothers and sisters.
And the deepest part of the Hellfire is a tree. This is the food because the people of Hellfire will be hungry.
You cannot even imagine what is the hunger light of the people of hellfire.
The intense thirst the intense hunger, they will be so hungry they will go because they will have to eat something they will go to the deepest part of the Hellfire because this is where they will find the food. It is the tree of Zaku
the tree of Zaku has fruits which are like the heads of devils. And they will take this and they will eat it. It is so bitter, so sour. The taste of it is so bad that can you imagine trying to eat something you know the gag reflex when you want to start vomiting. It's taste is so disgusting, but they are so hungry they will force themselves to eat it they can barely eat it but they will force themselves to eat it.
But what is the consequence of them eating this they will feel more thirsty than they were before.
So they will call and cry for drink and they will get a drink. That is like molten copper that will school that faces and burn the incense.
And this punishment will not lessen.
Every moment of punishment in the Hellfire will be more severe than the moment before just like engender every moment in Jannah is more beautiful and more nice than the moment before it. So the pleasure just keeps increasing in general. The punishment will keep increasing and Hellfire you will never get used to it. You will never get used to it.
This is the Hellfire brothers and sisters. It is so vast
It is so vast. The Hellfire is pulled by 70,000 bridles on each bridle is 70,000 angels. And if you were to drop a stone from the top of the Hellfire it would take 19 years to reach its bottom.
This is janam brothers and sisters.
This is the reality.
And there will be some Muslims who will go there not forever.
If any person who has even
a mustard seeds worth or an atom's weight of eemaan eventually they will come out of hellfire. But does anyone want to go there for a moment? Does anyone want to go there for an instance?
Who would want to even you would not even want to gaze upon the Hellfire, just looking at it
would make you terrified?
Brothers and sisters, this is the reality. What is our life? We need to think about what we are doing when we sell our era for some small moment of this dunya for some small, small instant of what we think and imagine is pleasure
from some temporary convenience, or some small or minute increase in our wealth or status. But we get these things in a way that is haraam.
What are we buying and what are we selling
What are we losing and what are we gaining?
We need to think brothers and sisters. Yes, Allah is a rough man. Yes, Allah is a Rahim. Yes, he is our four. Yes, he is our dude. He is the Merciful, the Compassionate, the Forgiving, the loving, he is the one who accepts repentance. But brothers and sisters, he is also shadow a cop. He is also the Severe in punishment.
He is also the Severe in punishment, do not forget that
do not be unmindful of that reality.
So, do we want to be from those people
who regret eternally? In fact, think about it? Is there anyone you know, even if they are the worst person who genuinely
you would want them to go to * fire?
I don't think so. We will be happy if anyone was guided to Islam. We would be happy if anyone
was saved from the hellfire.
And we have that responsibility, at least to convey the message and pass the message to warn people we are warned as brothers and sisters, as I mentioned this in my previous talk, that's part of our responsibility.
Yes, we give good news.
But we also have to warn the people of this eternal regret.
Now brothers and sisters,
I have described to you some some
of the punishments of Hellfire, but I have not told you the worst punishment. I have not yet told you the absolutely worst punishment. There is one punishment and there are many others. But above all of those whatever I could describe, and I could continue describing to you the horrors of hellfire. But let me tell you the absolutely worst punishment
for everybody in hellfire.
You know what the worst punishment is?
The worst punishment for the people of Hellfire is the knowledge that they will never be able to see the face of Allah.
That is actually the worst punishment of all.
The knowledge that they will never, ever be able to see the face of Allah.
That is truly the eternal regret.
Because the most beautiful thing
and I'm sure you've already heard the descriptions of paradise. So you must know then that the most beautiful thing in Paradise, from all the pleasures of Paradise and all the delights of Paradise, the most beautiful thing and the most pleasurable thing and the thing that the people in Allah Allah, the highest level in Paradise, what they will experience the most. That is what makes it Allah Allah is the people in Allah, Allah Allah for those, they will see the face of a law more than anybody else. And that is the most beautiful thing. in general.
The most beautiful thing in Paradise is the vision of Allah subhanho wa Taala It is not possible in this world. It is not possible in this world.
In this life in our form, no one and nothing could be exposed to the face of Allah and exist. It would obliterate everything.
But on the day of judgment when the people that believers have entered into gender
and Allah subhanaw taala has bought them into paradise.
Allah will ask them, is there anything else that you want?
The people of Paradise will reply all love
the most Burnett beneficent, and generous.
You have entered us into paradise you have lightened our faces. You have eased our hearts and given us the delights of Jenna
What more could we want? And Allah subhanaw taala will lift the veil and they will see the face of Allah subhanho wa Taala the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said, Do you have to his companions? Do you have any doubt about seeing the moon in the sky, when it is full?
Or the sun in the sky? When it is reached the zenith? They said, We have no doubt you're alone. They said so you will certainly see the face of Allah subhanaw taala in paradise. So what could be more beautiful than that?
What could be more pleasurable than that?
And the eternal regret brothers and sisters
of the people have jahannam
the most terrible punishment
is the knowledge,
the reality of knowing that they will never have that pleasure
that they will always be deprived of that absolute joy and bliss.
Brothers and sisters,
we have many conferences. We have many lectures.
Maybe you read many books and watch many videos.
But what does it all mean? If we don't translate this knowledge into action?
If all of this on what you're hearing today, does not drive you and motivate you,
drive you and motivate you to be better worshipers of Allah subhanho wa Taala to draw closer to Allah subhanho wa Taala.
What? What is it all for?
If you are not inspired and motivated to share this with others, there are still so many people Muslims in this country.
Muslims in this country
who don't pray,
they don't pray five times a day. Maybe some of them don't even pray Juma.
immersed in sins
and disobedience to Allah subhanho wa Taala how
many people who have not even yet heard the message of Islam,
you have a responsibility.
You have a duty you have an obligation
to number one act upon this knowledge.
Number one to act upon it yourself.
You have learnt now put this knowledge into action. That's the first thing. The second thing is to pass this knowledge on to others.
We must pass this knowledge on to others.
If not what sort of human beings are we?
We know about the hellfire. We know about the reality.
We have the knowledge and understanding. We have heard about this place. And we know that if people behave in a certain way and they believe certain things, that is where they will go.
We don't try to rescue them. We don't try to save them.
The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, you know how he described himself? He said I'm like a man standing beside a campfire in the night. And the insects you know the flying insects. They're coming and flying towards the fire. You see that everywhere right? You put on a light and you have all the insects flying around. It's the same if you light a fire, you will find the insects they are attracted towards it and they come and they go in a fire. Imagine you're trying to save these insects imagine they're coming from every direction you're trying to save them. This is how the project
Allahu alayhi wa sallam was, this is how he was
frantically trying to save the people from the hellfire. When he talked to the people he would shout you this may amaze you. But when the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam he used to preach to the people he used to shout, his face would go read, he would shout as if the people were being attacked by an army. Can you imagine? This is his concern for people?
I know you are very calm people. But there's some things you shouldn't be calm about.
Some things you you need to be concerned about, and you need to show that concern.
And this place, gentlemen,
this is no joke.
This is no joke.
Do you want to be in a situation that Allah, Allah is going to ask us?
You knew this person, you knew that person. You never told them. You never informed them. You never passed a message. You never even want that.
And yes, you think the Prophet Let me tell you the Tao of Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. Some people say oh, it's not Tao. You say to people, you're going to go to *, and really, really, but that's what the prophet said. So long was the first time he gave out in public. He stood on the top of Mount Safa. And according to one narration, he said, I warn you of the fire. I warn you of the fire. I warn you of the fire. This is what the prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said, I have come to warn you of a terrible punishment from your Lord. The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam was he came, and he was sent to make things clear. Be clear.
kulu colons Dida, speak a word that is truthful and clear.
Brothers and sisters, we have that obligation.
We ask Allah We beg Allah we plead with Allah subhanho wa Taala. To save us from Gehenna We ask Allah subhanaw taala to save us from the unknown.
And we ask Allah subhana wa Taala to make us from those people who enter into paradise, and who are able to look upon his face
subhanho wa Taala my brothers and sisters, may Allah guide all of us, and May Allah make us people who guide others to the truth. I mean, your ability I mean Allahumma salli ala Muhammad Ali while he was he was on them, which is aka laco. salaam aleikum wa rahmatullah.
